Four teams brave frigid temperatures Thursday night at Bulldawg Stadium to determine the Division I and Division II champions of the Copperas Cove Youth Football League tackle program. After a slight delay to allow fans to arrive and warm up, the Longhorns and Eagles faced off for the Div I title. “I was a little disheartened because we had to play on a freezing Thursday because the Bulldawgs making it on the Saturday game, but we had to get over it,” said Longhorns head coach Kevin Myers. “We practiced Tuesday and Wednesday and we stayed out for two hours both nights. Some of the moms probably thought we were crazy for doing it but it paid off. It’s kind of like running 85 miles in August, some of the moms thought we were crazy but I told them there was a goal at at the end of it was getting rings and here we are.”
